It's getting colder!

Yesterday, when I left for work, it wasn't that cold. Maybe in the 50s. I was wearing a denim jacket and a skirt with tights. (and a shirt and shoes and stuff) I wasn't cold. Last night, when I left work, it was raining and cold and suddenly, I was freezing! I met Jayne for dinner, and luckily, she was able to lend me gloves and a scarf, or I might have frozen to death on the metro platform. (OK, that's actually doubtful, seeing as how it was only in the 40s, but still! It was damn cold! and wet!)

I don't know if they've turned on the heat in my building yet. I don't use my radiators much. It gets really, really hot with them on, and I'm on the top floor of the building, anyway, so I get everyone else's heat, too. I will occasionally turn on the one in the dining room, which is also helpful in drying wet laundry. More helpful than the fans I use in the summer, that's for sure. (I wish I had a dryer, but that's a different story)

I wore a coat today, and my own gloves. It's not raining anymore, but it's still chilly! I heard it snowed in western Maryland yesterday. I don't ever remember it snowing in October.

I wonder if this summer's crazy hurricane season was a harbinger of a crazy blizzard season. I really think the planet is trying to tell us something.
